Even the PC will do damage, it is just certain people that sell them say otherwise.

lol ;) In all fairness some of what the guys is saying is true so is utter rollocks !

LOL - The fade on red cars has nothing to do with most of them fading due to over polishing. Older red cars oxidise/fade because they have no lacquer to stop it, newer cars fade due to the UV rays from the sun effecting the pigment of the basecoat through the clear lacquer.

Indeed - Most people are a tad more sensible than that !

Though that rule goes out of the window when shooting moving subjects in most cases.

Depends how durable the wax is though - lots of cars out there done by pros wearing just Vintage or even cheaper waxes such as BOS stand alone over CF or HD Cleanse.

It will be - The speed of the autofocus will be faster and more accurate with the 40D the motor in the lens is just one part of the chain. The AF on the 40D I tried locks onto moving targets faster than my 350D and friends 400D all using my 300mm F4L

LOL - On dull days for motorsport work I would get crap pics if limited myself to 200 iso !

Worth a read - good basic guide - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=148366 I have had good results on dark blues with P21, CG 50/50 and Swissvax Onyx. They all look good the later ones win in durability.

Not sure re. the first question my 182 gets CF and wax, if it lived outside it would get sealant and wax like my daily drive does. All depends on usage and storage. Should not do, use it to blot and absorb the water rather than wipe as you would a chamois, does get better after a couple of uses...

You want to get the music off the ipod into itunes - you need http://www.thelittleappfactory.com/application.php?app=iPodRip

More of a paint cleaner than a polish. Cleans the paint to allow the wax to bond properly.

All done through itunes.

Had this the other day here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401125&sliceId=2 Exporting documents for use in InDesign CS2 (Save Back) Save Backwards allows InDesign CS2 users to open InDesign CS3 documents that have been exported to the InDesign Interchange (.inx)...

If you use the CF it will remove the EGP. You have the choice to use the CF and go straight to the wax or use the AG SRP and EGP then just use the Samurai. The Onyx is the entry level Swissvax which is why I went for it, It is fine on any colour. Run your fingers round the top of the pot to...

Samurai wax is effectivley a reformulated Onyx for Japanise paint - not sure how much I believe in Marque specific waxes, it should be as good as Onyx though. Autobahn Wheel Wax is a nice product, use that one myself. As long as the pint rubber - which is a clay bar is still soft and plyable...

2005 Black Gold 182 with Cup Packs - £12665 from the local Renault Dealership. It will be staying for a while.

Carlack and Collinite as supplied will work just fine, but putting the EGP and it should see out winter easily and if you already have some personally I would use it as well.

Nice clean up - Wheel refurb and an engine bay clean and it will look good. Was tempted to get a VTS and try and live with the gash seats and save myself some money over buying a 106 GTi, but the weekend proved I still need a bigger car then the Clio rather than a smaller one :(

I would still use the EGP in there if you have it Wash Dry Carlack 68 EGP Collinite

Soild colours can be enhanced by the choice of wax as well, not tried it on racing blue but look into Megs #26 which looks superb on other soild colours. Megs #16 also looks good.

Need more sunny days to make it like that all year!

Hater ;) I can't comment though - can't remember the last time I used any ...

All depends on how aggressive a polish is being used. You could safely use a mild polish such as Super Resin Polish by machine on a polishing pad every week if you wanted to.

Super Resin Polish Extra Gloss Protection

I am hurt by the Kosovan comment ....

Some things he mentions are true but some are a touch odd. As to only machine polishing a car once would leave alarm bells ringing into how much clearcoat he is removing in one polishing session.

Not for me - it just ended up sticking to it as the clay dried out and went rock solid

Close Mr Ali - PO91L

I have always found the #83 less use friendly than the IP. I prefer the origional formula IP at this time of year to.
